yea i finally got it working in my program. I believe i had a ground that wasnt hooked up and i couldn't see due to wires over laping.
My only thing is how well and how long can this keep a latch without failing

Your circuit will probably fail when the electrolytic capacitor or the LED dies. First guess...about 100,000 hours, give or take 30%. If you drive the car longer than that, you should probably pull over and take a nap.

Ok did the math and that's about 11years. Always on. So that's good.
I plan on using it to turn on and off a few things n the car. Didn't want to use a toggle switch because of have everything is se up in the rest of the circuit.
I'm going to try to build that circuit I posted up there and add it to what I already have and see if it will work for me.
